Chefs – Chef de Partie to Senior Sous Chef
Chefs- Chef de Partie to Senior Sous Chef
With our spa transformation and expanded dining spaces, it's an exciting time to be part of Bishopstrow. We're looking for talented chefs across several levels to join our brigade and play a part in the next chapter of our food offering.
We're welcoming applications from Chef de Partie, Senior Chef de Partie, Junior Sous Chef, Sous Chef and Senior Sous Chef candidates, with opportunities to suit different levels of experience.
As part of our kitchen brigade, what you'll be doing
Preparing, cooking and presenting fresh, seasonal dishes to consistently high standards.
Working alongside our Head Chef and senior chefs to deliver a great dining experience for our guests.
Taking ownership of your section or supporting the wider running of the kitchen, depending on your experience and role.
Bringing creativity, ideas and enthusiasm to menu development and daily specials.
Supporting and developing fellow chefs, sharing knowledge and working together as a strong brigade.
Maintaining excellent standards of food hygiene, kitchen organisation and food safety.
Helping manage stock, food costs and waste without compromising on quality.
Playing an active part in developing our food offering as Bishopstrow continues to grow.
Voted into the Times' 100 Best Places, Bishopstrow is a whimsical country house hotel set within 30 acres of glorious Wiltshire countryside and there's genuinely nowhere quite like it. Gregarious rooms, a newly launched spa, The Grill restaurant, and a kitchen garden that feeds both all wrapped up in Georgian elegance with a healthy dose of colour and imagination.
We're in the middle of an exciting chapter right now. New suites, a reimagined kitchen garden restaurant, and a spa that's causing quite a stir. If you want to be part of something that's growing, evolving, and always a little bit surprising, this is the place.
What's it like to work here?
Much like the hotel itself imaginative, warm, and never boring. We're a playful team who back each other to stay unconventional, whether you're brand new to hospitality or this is your life's work. Our community is diverse, inclusive, and genuinely big-hearted; the kind of place where you're encouraged to be fully, unapologetically yourself.
